Labor Unity

The Victorian Branch of the Australian Labor Party (ALP) held its state conference over the weekend of May 26 and 27.

The conference was held amid rising tensions within the Victorian ALP; with several prominent unions including the Construction, Forestry, Mining, Maritime and Energy Union (CFMMEU) splitting from the Socialist Left to form the new 鈥淐entre Unity and Industrial Left Alliance鈥 faction with a number of right-wing unions including the Australian Workers Union (AWU).
